Disney is a collaborator. So are members of the Supreme Court and the heads of US departments. Among others.
I think it's important to use the word "collaborator." IMO, once a collaborator, always a collaborator.

My thought is not to boycott Disney et al. until Kimmel is back on the air. I intend to boycott them for the rest of my life.
Pretty sure I can find plenty of screen entertainment from non-collaborators!
